Guide updated
The downloadable local game can run without internet when its files are present. A previously loaded web app may have cached resources, but must be tested on that device. Cloud login/sync, friends, co-op rooms and rankings need their network services. Guest progress is still memory-only, and a cached cloud save waits locally for reconnection.
Choose a save mode deliberately
Scroll sideways to read every column.
| Mode | Where progress survives | Result / next action |
|---|---|---|
| Guest | Memory only; closes with the game document. | Use an account before expecting persistent collection. |
| Local account | This game origin, browser and profile; not another device. | Keep original-site storage; return to the same profile. |
| Cloud account | Authenticated cloud identity plus a local cache. | Use the same sign-in method and wait for Saved in the cloud. |
Choose the right offline expectation
Scroll sideways to read every column.
| What you see | What to do | Success / next step |
|---|---|---|
| First visit without internet | Go online to load the original page/assets, or use the complete local game files. The guide’s cached page does not supply the game. | The actual game reaches the menu and renders a run, not only the guide page. |
| Cloud indicator says Offline | Keep this browser’s local data and reconnect on this same account before using another device. | The indicator returns to saved; compare the collection and upgrades after the merge. |
| Friends or rankings do not load offline | Reconnect and use a cloud account. A local account or guest cannot acquire online services just by waiting. | Friend/room views load online; continuing a solo local run is a separate choice. |
Reconnecting does not add two coin balances
Cloud merging unions collections and recorded completions, keeps maximum upgrade/stat progress, and takes coins and partner from the newer save. Example: two saves with 100 and 250 coins do not become 350; the newer selected save supplies the balance. Avoid parallel purchases while one device has a pending upload.
